Another great podcast Julie! We've never done the God's Eye so that may be our next project. Thanks!

Just a few idea: Visual diarys and beading are things I would be interested in hearing more about, esp if you know some good links about making stitch markers

Great podcast! Thanks for the reminder about God's Eye's - I haven't thought of them in years. I remember doing them at camp when I was a kid. I'm going to try interesting the step-son in making one next weekend. :)

Also - I have to say that it seems like you are settling into a nice speaking style. It seems like you are less nervous and use less nervous ticks. :)
